Circuit Jules Tacheny Mettet, formula 750 circuits
Circuit Jules Tacheny Mettet is a motorsport racing track located in Belgium, about 20 kilometers southeast of Charleroi. The facility spans approximately 14 hectares with a 2.3 kilometer main course designed to host motorcycle and car races, and can be adapted for different competition formats including a rallycross track and off-road sections.
The track was redesigned and opened in 2010, building on the legacy of the Belgian motorcycle champion it was named after, whose record-setting achievements in the 1930s connected the area to international racing. Opening this facility made it the first circuit in Wallonia where riders could train and practice their skills in a safe, controlled environment.
The track is named after Jules Tacheny, a Belgian motorcycle champion from the 1930s who set world records and had deep roots in Mettet. This naming honors his achievements and connects the circuit to a local racing heritage that the community takes pride in.
The track is located at Rue Saint-Donat in Mettet and is easy to access for visiting events or participating in training sessions. It is recommended to check the website or contact the facility beforehand to confirm availability and learn about upcoming races, trackdays, and private events available for groups.
The circuit is home to Belgian Supermoto racing, a style that combines asphalt and off-road sections, and several bends are named after famous drivers who have won here. Visitors can experience special activities like RX Experience or Speed4fun events that go beyond standard race weekends.
